I had to take pictures to put in a presentation for another class. Alone they were not very good, but together they seem to work… 

There is nothing quite like playing a Zelda game. It still has that same fun feeling, even if it is the same base story with every game.

My Five Things... Maybe seven....

I have many interest, and all of varying degrees of chronic obsession that associate to them. Though the things that never leave my head are: The Ocean, pens/writing, animals, photography, and technology. I am constantly thinking, reading, writing… essentially, obsessing over them.

This is a Purple Sea Nettle (Chrysaora colorata).  I took this picture at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It represents my love for the ocean. 

It was just now that I realized I did not have a picture that represented technology in my library. This is the Lightroom app on the iPad. Lightroom is wonderful, and the iPad is a quintessential piece of technology.

Graham Green once said “My two fingers on a typewriter have never connected with my brain. My hand on a pen does. A fountain pen of course. Ball-point pens are only good for filling out forms on a plane.”

I agree completely. This picture was, if I recall correctly, the first or second roll of film that I every shot.

Animals, they are awesome. Dobbie is the name of the one above, (yes, like in Harry Potter) she is one of the two dogs I have. This is here regal pose. 

COFFEE!!! I love coffee. I can assure that there is no less then five different ways to produce a cup of coffee in my kitchen at any given time. Espresso, french press, pour over, moka pot, percolator, turkish style, auropress…. you name it I have probably heard of it and tried it. 

I must mention two other things as I bring this to a close: Reading and Italia. They are also on my list and extremely influential to me. 

And with that, I end.

These come from my most recent trip to Monterey. Long exposures in the early morning, right before sunrise.

Perhaps not quite a selfie, but a picture of myself none the less. I like my privacy and do not want my face on the internet.
